A highly addictive mmorpg that started with
BETA in
2004 and was released towards the end of 2005. Even right now, there are hundreds of thousands of players. Probably even millions. This
game is popular amongst different age groups and people of maturity level. It is extremely addictive and repetitive, yet fun.
You start as a beginner, citizen, and such. Then you can choose many different jobs, including new ones that were added like Wild Hunter, Battle Mage and Mechanics.. The
game was once tedious due to difficulty and time wasted in leveling up, but it was improved. Imagine how the people who worked their asses off got to level 200 in the past and found out it is easier to level now?
MapleStory seems to be the only
game that seems truly free and all benefits and advantages in their cash shop are
time limited which makes the
game fair to "free" players. Unfortunately, the
game also has numerous jerks, morons, hackers and
kill-stealers. This
game has potential, and can be fun, but the community and hackers may turn you away. It sure did for me!
MOST people in this game can't share and think they own an entire map for themselves. There are only 20 channels and probably
13,000 people wanting to train in the same place. This game is like virtual drama all day, everyday.
